What were you lot on last night?! I'm warn out with reading it all. Off to get new puppy at lunchtime. Oh......... why am I doing this? The first few weeks are awful. Gordon, re your offer of a run... where do you live?
Feel very virtuous today as ran 2.8miles yesterday without really trying and without much pain, and there were several hills. Going to measure out a new run into the next village today, and maybe try it out in the morning.
Having my second coffee before heading of round the gym for a couple of hours. Speed work today. The hangover is just about gone, so I may manage not to throw up on the treadmill.... Have a good weekend ....
Knee felt a lot better so I managed a long very slow run this morning.
Kept off the vino last night Benz!
Tonight though I'm out at a Greek restaurant throwing the "Tin Dish" about.(You're not allowed to smash plates say the Health & Safety Executive.)Hope I don't get called to Karaoke - my rendition of Yesterday is very rusty!
Will have a drink or several though as it's my birthday next Wednesday and will probably blow out on the "Mezze"
Hi gals - thought this might be a cheaper source of thrills, instead of an 0906 number, when I saw the headline - seems I was wrong - oh well back to the den of iniquity!
Stand outside your back door tonite and you will get a cold shower Mutters old chap (maybe even a blow...). Damn it - the insidious influence of the "Dark Side" is starting to creep in even here.
The trouble with it being so quiet in here today is that.... you start to think that everybody else is out there having fun (without telling you). Think I'll go and have a long hot bath (accompanied by cold beer and assorted snack foods) and come back later.
Evening... Nobody here then ...OK time for a wee prattle then... didn't get to gym till 1700 this evening as the hangover kinda hung around longer than I expected, done my weights.. then onto the treadmill for some serious speed work (i say this lightly)... 2 sets later I was knackered... so went for a sauna instead. OOh so good. Been good with the food today... tummy not very obliging. So only on my first lager and having to be real good coz I'm going out later when the big guy gets home... so 2 drinks max !!!
EP the advantages to a treadmill are manyfold, here are a few... you don't get wet you don't get cold dogs don't bite you and gyms always have a bar you can visit afterwards.
Hello went to westonbirt arboretum today, too full of bloody people and dogs to run Grrrr Nice trees though, walked about 4.5 miles 24 weeks to FLM Right, Goota start training, cos that means its less to Reading On the first gin, not counting the one tinnie in the car on the way home
EP.. Giving up drink was maybe not a good idea ... but I have managed through another day.. not a bit of chocie.. apple puffs are very easy... not even missing them..
I actually like habits ... they are comforting... like always going to the same pub or resturaunt .. it's nice to differ sometimes.. but not always. EP what is the panic ?? you got 19 weeks ... plenty time ....

No running today as I have a race tomorrow. Yes I know it will be blowing a gale and bucketing down but the show must go on.
Off to tesco's for breakfast and shopping then have visitors for the weekend.
Hope all are well and positive today.
I'm still on for Reading and staying over if you guys are.
